This is the first working version of turn rate limiter starting beta testing now!For those not familiar, this is a project aimed at providing a cheap, easy to use shield for beginners. It only requires this board and the ArduPilot main board to fly the plane, very simple!
I got only a mild version of Jordi fever, only the pressure sensor was affected :D
The term "shield" is not in the glossary. I guess it means the same as "turn rate limiter". And again i guess the purpose of such a device is to limit the maximum variation speed of any command (gas, pitch, roll, or yaw).
Sweet! BTW, this is one of the first DIY Drones devteam efforts to work with a team of volunteers via the Huddle workspace. Jeff led that effort and did a great job navigating tricky stuff like the GPS groundplane size and configuration...
